Chapter 2: Rin's saver
a/n well I'm here again I just got a review. Just one but it means the world that someone likes my story. Well enough talking on with the story.
A little girl was running from a bear demon. She had black hair and had many cuts from being scraped by many branches along the ground. A root suddenly decided to get in her path and she fell over. 'this is it Rin should not have run away from Lord Sesshomaru.' Rin closed her eyes and waited for the demon to strike, but it never came. When Rin look up she saw a demon that looked like a black Sesshomaru. The demon finished the bear in a matter of seconds. When she was done she look at Rin. Then gave her a smile. "what are you doing in the forest by your self?" "Rin went to pick some flowers for Lord Sesshomaru ,but went too far and gots attacked" Rin said with a big smile across her face. "what is your name sweet child?" "Rin's name is Rin." 'so this is the human child that travels with Sesshomaru. Well her going out buy her self is a good thing for me. Knowing Sesshomaru and his honor he will try to pay me back.' Ashrei fought the urge to smile. With her smiles someone was sure to die. "Well Rin why don't we wait here? I can sense that he is close, and I know he would like to see his traveling companion safe, and out of harms way." "Rin would love to stay with the pretty lady." Ashrei smiled at the fact that the girl spoke in third person. Or tried to at least. (remember she is bad) " it's Ashrei, Rin." "Ok lady Ashrei!" Rin said and started to run around in circles.
- Were Sesshy is -
'I can't believe that toad lost her. again. how many time must I throw him across the forest or into a tree?' When Sesshomaru found out that jaken had fallen asleep on the job and let Rin go off he set off to find Rin. Then he smelt it. Rin's blood and a demon. The picked up his speed and followed the scent. He stopped when he heard a song. It was sad. Yet he could now move from the spot he was at.
- back to Rin and Ashrei -
'perfect he is close enough to hear' "hey Rin? You looked pretty shook up after I saved you do you want me to tell you a story?" "yay! Rin likes stories!" Rin ran up to the girl and sat in her lap. "what story will it be Lady Ashrei?" "how about the story of my mother?" "ok rin would like that!" "ok. Well I can't tell you truthfully what she looked like all I can remember is that we were separated when I was a baby. Her voice is the only thing I can truly remember. I had a brother and a sister but my family was working for an evil master in China. He decided to kill me ,but my mother found out. All she took was a water-proof basket and me in a blanket. She went to a river and sang a song so I would stop crying. It went sortta like this." She knew the Sesshomaru was close enough to hear her so she started:
Hush now my baby
Be still and don't cry
Sleep as your rocked by the stream
Sleep and remember my last lullaby
Come back to me when you dream…
She started to hum for a couple of minutes and started again:
River oh river flow gently for me
such precious cargo you bear
Do you know somewhere
She can be free?
River deliver her there….
When she stopped singing she was fighting back tears. (a/n this really happened to her)
"that was the last time I saw my mother, and my siblings. Later when I had gotten older I had found out that the lord that we were slaves to had gotten angry and killed them." 'that was when I said that I will find out who killed her and I will kill him. I could never trust any lord and so I trained I became an assassin who just killed royalty because it was royalty that my family.' She never said a word of it cause she knew Sesshomaru was near and could hear her. "now I am just a traveler no place to go, no place to call home." "poor Ashrei. Rin knows! Rin will ask lord Sesshomaru if you can stay with us!" "oh I don't know he will let me I'm just a mixed breed"
"so that is what you are?" A cold voice said as Sesshomaru stepped out of the shadows. "Might I ask what two breeds you are?" "Lord Sesshomaru!" Rin squealed as she attached herself to his leg. "lord Sesshomaru" Ashrei said as she bowed, "I asked a question bitch." "my name is Ashrei and I am both dark inu and phoenix." "how is that possible? Both species are extremely rare and to find a mixed blood is impossible." "well consider your self seeing the impossible" she replied coolly. "you should watch what you say woman." "I can say what I want. You can't say anything to me" "Rin go pick some flowers ,but don't go too far" "yes Lord Sesshomaru!" when Rin was gone Sesshomaru ran at Ashrei and put his hands around her neck. "if Rin were not here you would be dead." "I would not because of one simple fact." "and what would that be?" "I control time"…..
